The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

[Tremendous Upside]

Funny thing is he was inserted into the starting lineup on tonight's Lakers win.
They must like something about him

Warm body with 6 fouls to give?

While he has some weaknesses defensively too, he's a very active defender with a contagious energy (and of course excellent rebounding).

Vando's main contribution to last season's Jazz was bringing a 100% facilitating mindset to the starting lineup at his position, which, among other things, had a lot to do with Lauri feasting on cuts and backdoors all the time. He also had a good nose for loose balls, which ties into his rebounding.

As a defender he was (and is) overrated, and I've never seen a 6'8'' finisher as bad as him in the NBA.

He’s Dennis Rodman

Homeless Dennis Rodman

I believe that Hendricks' floor is to be the player that a lot of people THINK Vando is. Just has to sell out to rebounding.

Nothing alike

Craig Porter Jr with 19, 7, 8 in another win for the Cavs without Garland or Mitchell.

He's solid which you could see back in summer league too.
UDFA. Likely not drafted because he was 23.
I'd much rather be giving minutes to him than someone like Dunn.

Sure but hachimura, Austin Reeves, DeAngelo Russell etc seem like they could be warm bodies with 6 fouls to give and start.

Vanderbilt sucks

At one point Im sure Fish thought Jared Vanderbilt was the next Gobert

 

[KqWIN]

2 most efficient PnR scorers w/more than 4 possessions in a game:

Tyus Jones
Immanuel Quickley

Vanderbilt sucks

Exactly. That's why the discussion of him being a starter is going on.
Your contribution was predictably poor
